Run with MeeGo

Any device that will run MeeGo needs two things: the MeeGo core software
stack and the MeeGo User eXperience (UX) for that specific device,
although you are not limited to using the MeeGo UX, and you can create and
deploy your own branded UX. Currently, MeeGo is available for Netbooks,
IVI and handsets.

MeeGo v1.1 Core Software Platform

The MeeGo Core 1.1 release provides a common base operating system for
the user experiences of all supported device categories. It provides a
complete set of enabling technologies for mobile computing. The MeeGo
stack contains Linux kernel 2.6.35, X.org server 1.9.0, Web Runtime, Qt
4.7 and Qt Mobility 1.0.2, supporting the contacts, location, messaging,
multimedia, and sensor and service frameworks. It also includes a number
of leading-edge components, such as the oFono telephony stack, the ConnMan
connection manager, the Tracker data indexer, the Telepathy real-time
communications framework, the Buteo sync framework and many more.

These technologies are brought to application developers through the
MeeGo API, which is based on Qt and other technologies, such as the
MeeGo Touch Framework. With the latest Qt version 4.7, the
MeeGo developer experience is now enhanced with the introduction of QML,
the easy-to-use scripting technology for animated touch-enabled GUI
apps.
